Healing is what happens when Pastoral Practitioners minister, enabling people to receive restoration to health of body and mind through God's great love and mercy. This restoration of health is part of what is meant by the "abundant life" which the Lord promised.

Acetyl L-Carnitine

What Is L-Carnitine?

L carnitine is derived from the lysine and methionine amino
acids. It is mainly synthesized in the liver and the kidneys, and must be
transported for use to other tissues in the body. It is found in highest
concentration in tissues that use fatty acids as the main dietary fuel, such as
the skeletal and cardiac muscles.

Acetylcarnitine may improve mental fatigue in those who suffer from chronic

fatigue syndrome.

Patients with multiple sclerosis are helped by acetylcarnitine, which reduces
their fatigue.

In aging rats, chronic administration of acetylcarnitine increases cholinergic
synaptic transmission and consequently enhances learning capacity. The memory of
aging rats is rejuvenated by giving them a combination of acetylcarnitine and
lipoic acid.

Its a bit like a scene from a movie: the elderly scientist, working late
in the lab, takes a sip of potion from a bubbling flask and undergoes a
miraculous transformation as his body regains its youth and vigour. Pure
fantasy? Maybe not  because thats pretty much what happened to elderly
laboratory rats when they were fed two dietary supplements in a recent landmark
study. According to the professor in charge of the study, the old rats became
so full of energy, they got up and did the Macarena!
